Got around to purchasing photos from our most recent barn hunt trial! Stoli is still working on his overexcitement for the rat and hunting that elusive final Q for his Open title. Thinking to enter him in another, more local trial this coming October to meet our goal of getting his RATO this year.

Had a great time at barn hunt this weekend! A lot was learned and while we did have a few NQs at the beginning (kept alerting at litter tubes) Stoli wrapped up the weekend on a high note with two back-to-back qualifying scores earning first place both times in Open A Large. He now just needs one more Q to get his RATO title! Not bad for his debut weekend in Open!

No photos this weekend but enjoy one of his qualify score videos!

Enjoy the videos and music you love, upload original content, and share it all with friends, family, and the world on YouTube.
